No, that wasn’t my paint job. I wish it was, but I got that off the Reaper Miniatures website.
Thanks for everyone’s comments, everyone! It’s a lot to think about, and I’ll have to consider. I’m getting pretty equal comments suggesting the Shadar-Kai and the Spellsword. Hmm…

None – Shadar-kai PALADIN on the raven queen

Sorry, didn’t care for the avenger as much as the Pally. YMMV though.

Did you paint the mini in the photo? If so – very nice work!

I think the swordmage looks like the most fun. I was playing around with the hybrid rules & I think swordmage-wizards work really, really well.

(And, predictably, there are numerous CharOp threads devoted to that combination, and the cruel, cruel things you can do to the swordmage at-will called ‘Sword Burst’)

Well, that depends on what you feel like painting. Personally, I would go for either the swordmage (and make him shiny energy swords) or the Avenger for the shrouds of doomy death running around and dark colored, flow-y clothes.

As far as actual play goes, I vote for whatever you didn’t have a chance to play yet!
